Dual RAID
Controller
Configuration
In this configuration two RAID Controllers are installed in
the enclosures I/O slots.
Note:
The following configuration procedures refer to
connecting the 2Gb SANbloc Series directly to the host
system. It is also possible to connect the system using a Hub/
Switch.
CAUTION: Before working on the enclosure, ensure that anti-
static precautions have been taken. The minimum requirement is
an anti-static wrist strap and grounding wire.
To connect this configuration to a host system, follow this
procedure:
Connecting Dual RAID Controllers to a Host Sys-
tem
Note:
This example configuration assumes that the RAID
enclosure is being attached to two separate host systems,
each containing two HBA’s. Other configurations, such as one
host with 4 HBA’s are also possible.
1
Plug two host cables in to the host connectors of the first RAID
controller (one cable into each FC connector).
2
Plug the opposite ends of these cables into the HBA’s of the first
host system (see Figure 4-7)
3
Plug two host cables in to the host connectors of the second
RAID controller (one cable into each FC connector).
4
Plug the opposite ends of these cables into the HBA’s of the
second host system (see Figure 4-7)
